dc.description.abstractEn | The joint NASA-ESA-ASI Cassini- Huygens mission reached the saturnian system on July 1st 2004. It started the observations of Saturn's environment including its atmosphere, rings, and satellites (Phoebe, Iapetus and Titan). Titan, one of the primary scientific interests of the mission, is veiled by an ubiquitous thick haze [1]. Its surface is unreachable to ultraviolet and visible wavelengths, but can be seen in some infrared atmospheric windows and for greater wavelengths, in the case of an unclouded low atmosphere [2,3]. Onboard the Cassini spacecraft, the VIMS (Visual and Infrared Mapping Spectrometer) instrument has already proved to be able to successfully pierce the veil of the hazy moon and image its surface in the infrared wavelengths, taking hyperspectral images in the range 0.4 to 5.2 ?m. Since July 2004, VIMS acquired image cubes with spatial resolution ranging from a few tens of kilometers down to less than one kilometer per pixel, demonstrating its capability for mapping more than 70% of Titan's surface and studying its composition and geology [4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11]. Also in the Cassini orbiter payload is the Ku-band RADAR experiment that can operate in altimeter mode. Exclusively dedicated to Titan's observations, this second active mode has been designed primarily to retrieve Titan's surface elevation and study its topography. We present here the comparative analysis of the altimeter track recorded during the first Titan flyby (26 October 2004, tagged TA) and VIMS images over the same regions acquired during the 13th flyby (30 April 2006). In particular, we present here the first nontopographic analysis of Cassini altimeter data along with a tentative correlation with VIMS observations. | |
